EUR/GBP
The cross rose to the highest level in nearly two months on Thursday, as pound is weighed by negative interest rate talks and conflict in UK/EU trade talks.
Fresh extension higher (following Wednesday's 0.6% advance which eventually broke above the top of thinning daily cloud) broke above pivotal Fibo barrier at 0.8987 (38.2% of 0.9498/0.8670) and cracked psychological 0.90 resistance.
Better than expected UK PMI's inflate pound but so far without stronger negative impact on bulls.
Positive daily studies underpin the rally which needs close above 0.8987 to confirm positive signals, generated on break above important technical barriers, with targets at 0.9084 (50% retracement) and 0.9100 (round-figure) coming in focus.
Broken daily cloud top (0.8931) needs to hold downticks to maintain bullish bias.
Res: 0.9029; 0.9084; 0.9100;0.9182
Sup: 0.8961; 0.8931; 0.8890; 0.8863
